    Man, I grew up loving Tommy Davidson and I still love him. I love how he articulates his stories, while being funny and being very real, sometimes feeling his pain. His is undoubtedly a legend and he deserves his flowers. Lastly, who’s shocked by how JLo treated him, she has that attitude written all over her?

    • @anthonydixon4636
      @anthonydixon4636 Год назад +1

      I would’ve been kinda shocked if I had not heard a lot of stories recently about how rude she is on set and to people that work for her. I don’t know her but it sounds like it’s very believable and who she is.

    This was such a great interview! Kudos to Shannon for letting The Legendary Tommy Davidson tell his story. Allowing the guest to express their full thought is sooooo important these days where social media tends to create their own narratives and versions of celebrity stories. Excellent Job. Turns out working with Skip was a hinderance.

  • @samkim3329
    @samkim3329 Год назад +41

    Blessings to this man. His greatest strength is being the storyteller of the road he traveled on and being able to pass what he learned while “hanging in his pain.” As far as Jennifer Lopez…he was her “lesson” that she just was blind to. She will keep running into the same lesson from different people at different times in her life. From Tommy and others her lesson may be to acknowledge that her ego blinds her to what is truly important in life. All that glitters isn’t gold.

    Big ups to Tommy Davidson. He went overseas to do shows for the military. I’m not sure how often he did that. I saw him in the convenient store on base in Japan. He walked up on me & asked me to find whatever he was looking for. I was in disbelief & only managed to say a few words. I didn’t even catch the show, I was working. Shout out to this legend.
